[WARNING] Mainstream Med CAUSING Killer Superbug?!

It’s so common you barely think about it…
You get a sore throat, wait a bit, then go to your doctor. You go home with a prescription, and that’s the end of it.
But this rinse-and-repeat method has set off some serious consequences.
Because this “common” sore throat is actually something more uncommon than you think…
In fact, it could be the latest killer superbug.
I’m talking about strep.
You’ve probably had it once or twice in your life. It’s the painful throat rash that comes with a fever…
And too often, an antibiotic.
Strep, technically Streptococcus pyogenes or group A Streptococcus, is the bacteria responsible for a number of illnesses.
And because docs worry about these diseases, they get scared and prescribe an antibiotic to keep these from happening.
But thanks to this overabundance of cautiousness, we have a much bigger problem.
Researchers have just discovered that group A Streptococcus will soon be completely resistant to penicillin and other antibiotics, according to a recent article in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology.
Mainstream medicine thought that strep would never adapt to antibiotics… but as usual, they were completely wrong.
On one hand, it’s understandable why your doc would give you an antibiotic: if strep goes untreated, it can cause some pretty terrifying things like worse infections.
But this RARE.
So once again, we can blame the mainstream for overreacting… and leaving us in a bigger mess.
Because thanks to too many antibiotic prescriptions and just plain bad calculations, we’re stuck with another soon-to-be-untreatable bacteria.
But this doesn’t have to be you.
The secret, as with any virus or bacteria, is boosting your immune system. Try some classic go-to supplements like vitamin C, but also include elderberry and Echinacea.
